Pour yourself a mug of your favorite morning brew. Pull up a chair and join us for our morning roll call here on the BBB.

    Mornin' BBB

    Good time this week at the 100th Anniversary of the ESSFT Parent club trial. No ribbons, but Lucy passed her water test, wowing the judges with her exuberance, style, and air time. Only pass/fail, but she was the last dog and the judges gave her the second best entry out of 21 dogs. Made my day and Lucy is now an official Amateur Field Champion.
    Yankees are getting Judge'd out. Big boppers can be streaky. Unfortunate for Ohtani.
    Good to be home. Even though my accommodations away were good this time, I am spoiled with our adjustable bed, and M's coffee is just the best.
    Saw some little spooky tricker or treaters on my way through a small town last night around 6 pm. Cute.
    50+ trick or treaters looked liked they were having fun. Wondering about the hat the guy in the NASA jumpsuit was wearing.

    BBB OP ;-)

    Good morning BBB

    That a girl Lucy!!!

    What kind of adjustable bed do you have Lee? We are in the market!

    Outside yard is done and winterized. Cold here in the night and this morning ... only in mid 30s. High yesterday was 50. Same today.

    Our full time neighbor friends invited us over to their home for brunch later. Then it's back to pack up the RV inside. I had already taken most stuff home. I just put all towels and bedding etc in tubs, in case we get a mouse, it wont nest in the linens etc.

    Enjoy your Sunday BBB!

    We have an old sleep number bed. Cali King split adjustable. M thinks not worth the $$$ and would not buy another, but I disagree.

    Good morning BBB friends.

    Way to go Lucy!

    Church this morning, then Rita is invited to a special event for jackpot winners at a local casino. I get to tag along.

    Good Sunday morning BBB Friends.
    • Well done, Lucy!
    • I have a new Sleep Number bed, and I think it's worth it.
    • Got covid and flu shot Friday. Felt a bit off yesterday but fine today.
    • Expected high here today is 73°.
    • I would rather be up 2-0 in the WS than down 0-2. Just sayin'.

    WTG Lucy.

    There was a huge party at a nearby house. Music from 9pm to somewhere around 5am. Thankfully with the fan and minisplit on it was just background noise. Glad we weren't closer.

    Internet was out all morning but finally back now. Since we don't have cell service in Mexico we don't know if it was condo wide, city wide or just our unit. And without going somewhere I have n9 way to complain to rental company. Glad it's back on its own.

    We took Ron's bike in for maintenance yesterday so I'm guessing a hike today.

    The condo we viewed yesterday is good. It's spacious, decorated minimally and has good views. If we decide to stay it will be there if still available. Ron is starting to feel much better so maybe we will fly somewhere for winter.

    Good Afternoon,
    Been churched,
    Congrats Lucy!!!
    Seventies here today back into 80's later in week. We could use some rain but none in forecast.
    Event for jackpot winners sounds like they want part or all of winnings.
    DW wants a new bed, I like what we have; have thought about sleep number but cannot justify cost.
    Mary, great to have full time neighbors to keep eye on place.
    Wearing a week's worth of underwear will make one look like old man that has kidney issues and wearing diapers.

    You do spend a 1/3 of your life in bed.

    Good afternoon.

    Packing for Italy is all done except for last minute items.

    Sam - you'll never doubt the value of a bed until you've slept 5+ years in the wrong one.

    Have a spectacular trip, Lou & C!

    Inquiring minds demand to know: did you fit everything into a "carry on?"
